Signature in Outlook upgrade from 2000 to 2003

[Guest]

In Outlook 2000 I setup my signature as default for all new emails I send
out. After upgrading to Outlook 2003 the signature is still there but it is
no longer my default for new emails. Word is my default editor but create
the signature inside Outlook. Ideas? Thanks!

Thanks Sue, sorry I should have been more specific. I know how to go in
there and set it after the upgrade, I was asking if this is just a flaw with
upgrading to Office 2003 from 2000 or if there is something I can do to make
sure keeps my signature as default for new emails or if I will have to
manually reset it. I am curious as we will be rolling out many users soon
and will have this question.

Also is there a site with other known issues in upgrading from Outlook 2000
to Outlook 2003. We are upgrading from Office 2000 to Office 2003 but
primarily concerned with Outlook.

Outlook 2003 assigns signatures on a per-account basis. I wonder if that's
the factor that's not taken into account.

Are you upgrading from OL2000 CW mode or IMO mode?

I know of no such upgrade guide. The one problem frequently encountered is
with the Outlook Address Book being missing in an IMO upgrade.
